I read a quote by Albert Einstein the other day. He said "I don't know what weapons World War III will be fought with, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones". Very true I think.

worryingly very true.
Thankfully i won`t be around to see it happen.

Well sticks and stones are better than a nuclear war head … no?

I will take sticks and stones over nuclear weapons. I am still able to throw and prod.

If it comes to that, this is about our grandchildren and their children.

BlueBelle I think what was meant by the quote is that if there is a third world war (presumably nuclear) it would send humanity back to the stone age.

He's a clever boy, that Einstein, isn't he?
